Pentagonal. The max 1st molar is rhomboidal.

Hi rtvj:

anjali_45 is absolutely right. This is easy to recall. Just think that skeletal muscle is voluntary, that is why you have it in the upper part of the esophagus. The last third is involuntary therefore it has smooth muscle. And the middle third just remember it's a mix of both.

Hope it's useful for you 🙂

1)If tetanus antitoxin is given, then, artificial passive immunity results, because tetanus antitoxin is nothing but antibodies aganist the toxin. since artificial antibodies are given from outside source, it is called passive imunity.


2)If tetanus toxiod is given, it induces the production of antibobies within the body, hence it gives artificial active immunity.
